Today I retract a portion of a former piece, as all published writers must eventually do. (Do you like how I just referred to myself indirectly as a published writer?) And this self-serving-hip-as-can-be little blog, though it only exists in cyberspace, is most certainly a publication.
I would like to retract Number 10, from my former article "The Things I Love About Italy in Order;" smoking is gross, it stinks, and is the opposite of cool. All things exotic have a way of capturing my imagination, and seeming ever so enchanting in the beginning. (Do you like how I just referred to smoking as "exotic"? I retract that too.) So Smoking, I see you for what you really are now, and I don't like you one bit.
